Re: [PATCH 15/21] mm: memmap_init: iterate over memblock regions rather that check each PFN

From: Baoquan He <redacted>

When called during boot the memmap_init_zone() function checks if each PFN
is valid and actually belongs to the node being initialized using
early_pfn_valid() and early_pfn_in_nid().

Each such check may cost up to O(log(n)) where n is the number of memory
banks, so for large amount of memory overall time spent in early_pfn*()
becomes substantial.

Since the information is anyway present in memblock, we can iterate over
memblock memory regions in memmap_init() and only call memmap_init_zone()
for PFN ranges that are know to be valid and in the appropriate node.

This causes a compilation warning from Clang,
